This Apple //c was introduced in April 1984 as the first portable version of the Apple II (or ][, //, or however you label '2'). At 1.4MHz, this computer mainly runs off disks and does not contain a HD. In addition, the monitor is a neat gadget to play with, it is actually a video monitor with a RCA input for video (yes, that also means the computer's RCA jack outputs video as well, which can be hooked up to a color TV)! As you can see above, a camera is pointing at the computer, which the monitor displays, and the process repeats infinitely.

The Macintosh Plus was introduced in January 1986 with 1MB of RAM. The Plus has a 9-inch black and white screen and boots up from an external HD. The Plus was the last Mac without ADB ports; the keyboard plugs into the front via a telephone-like port and the mouse plugs into a DB9 port.

The Macintosh SE is the first Apple product I've ever owned. This 8MHz computer was introduced in March 1987 and uses 800K disks. However, in 1989 Apple introduced the FDHD, or SuperDrive, which allows the SE to run on 1.44MB disks. The SE has a 9-inch black and white screen and is the first model to have a built-in fan.

The Macintosh Classic II is a upgraded version of the Classic and the SE/30. Introduced in October 1991, this computer was the last Macintosh to use a 9-inch black and white screen.
